Theme Day: Street Lights And Street Signs

Septembers theme day in the City Daily Photo community are street lights and street signs. My photo is from Hastings overlooking downtown hastings. The rows of lights has always caught my eye when I've driven past it and today you get to see my view of the street lights.

Some of you mentioned the mural, I am standing on the bridge that you see in the mural. It passes over the road you see in the photo.

The bridge I'm standing on is very narrow with about a two foot wide sidewalk. I didn't feel too safe with the cars passing my so close. Plus I had a bit of a bridge shake and some of the photos had a blur to them as I has a timed exposure for this shot.

Hastings is a small town, so there is not much going on in downtown Hastings, thus the light traffic. However the bridge I'm on is part of the highway system and that was quite busy.

When the theme day was first announced, I knew exactly what I was going to take a photo of. It's been a very busy August and I hadn't made a trip down to this destination as of August 30. I was out with some co-workers picking a fantasy football team that evening. I took a different way home than normal and found myself exactly where I want to take this photo by accident.

Under the Meyer Co sign on the left of the street. There are two people walking. The two motorcycles on the right, there is a person on one of them starting up the cycle. Just to the right of the motor cycle, there are two people also there moving.
